just completed the McKinsey Solve game
- did well in the Ecosystem section.
- struggled in the first part of Red Rock, where I made one calculation error during the investigation part, which led to a few wrong answers afterward since they were dependent on the previous answer.
- However, I performed well in the second part of Red Rock.

Am i doomed?

Solve is (as of 2020, when I last did recruiting) an inclusion tool, meaning that if your resume and profile is otherwise good enough, you will always get interviewed, no matter how you scored on Solve. It only matters when the profile is otherwise a ‘reject’, in which case a high Solve score might get you an interview anyway. So, not doomed.

I was at McK years ago before solve was used. I sort of which I could do it just to see what you all have to go through.

Google it and you can find videos. People who regularly play video games have an advantage in terms of play stress and some of the games. But in theory it is supposed to test how you think/process information.
